King

"When we walked in the hostess was on the phone. We waited 5-7 minutes while she chatted on the phone in order to be seated. Really rude. The steak was incredibly tough, the fish tasteless. We did like the chick pea fried sticks… very creative. They need to have a talk with whoever sells them their meat. Honestly was too bad. We did read mixed reviews and wanted to give it a chance. I’m sorry it didn’t measure up."

"We ate here early on Saturday night, not too busy, but it filled quickly. I would say the food was very good. My husband had sea bass which was well prepared with an ultra smooth mashed potato. I had the hanger steak, very good, and a delicious sweet potato tian. The treacle tart was nice, not too sweet given the main ingredient. But please tell me why restaurants that charge vast quantities of money for their food think it’s okay to give you such a mean pour of wine, I find this habit to be very aggravating. I mean is another ounce or two going to wreck your bottom line. It’s insulting."

"Small menu that changes constantly, delicious, with a cozy atmosphere and great service!"

"King is my favorite restaurant in the whole world. The food is always exceptional, service is impeccable and the wine list is just perfect. I wish I could come in everyday."

"My partner and I visited King for the first time this past weekend. Our experience started out well, getting worse as it went on and ended in disaster. Our cocktails at the bar were very, very tasty! Once we were seated, our server was lovely and attentive (although forgot our bread). We had one lovely small bite starter, a puff pastry with pumpkin style puree "Tarte a la Courge". The appetizers were okay at best, the orecchiette that was much too al dente for our taste, where it tastes like flour without much else in terms of flavor aside from a slightly pleasant bitter green. Poached ox-tongue was mildly interesting but was totally lost on the plate - the star ended up being perfectly boiled and seasoned potatoes, which is SO boring for a dish I was looking forward to. I thought the rabbit was cooked well but I did not like the rest of the flavors on the plate at all. There was a strange sweet-burnt flavour on the onions and vegetables that I couldn't pin. The Skate was mediocre and filled with bones (if that kind of thing turns you off - I cared more about the lack of flavor). Last but not least, and the worst of all - there was a special Tarte Tatin on the menu that we were very excited about. This was one of the worst desserts my partner and I have ever had. The texture was grainy and mushy with no evidence of fruit, it was massive, and worst of all, tasted like burned-irony-caramel, it was inedibly bitter and we had to send it back. Unfortunately, it's very unlikely that we'll return."
